61. You have blotted it out, indeed, in your breasts and minds, but the Word of God is not blotted out, the Holy Spirit is not blotted out, but turns away from impious minds; not grace but iniquity is blotted out; for it is written: “I am He, I am He that blot out thine iniquities.” Isa. xliii. 25. Lastly, Moses, making request for the people, says: “Blot me out of Thy book, if Thou sparest not this people.” Ex. xxxii. 32. And yet he was not blotted out, because he had no iniquity, but grace flowed forth.
